Check-in on event day

What is check-in?

Check-in confirms that a participant is physically present on event day. It's optional but recommended to:

  • Know who showed up
  • Filter out no-shows
  • Generate attendance statistics

Two ways to check in

1. Participant shows their QR

  1. MC enters the app or web
  2. Goes to their profile or the event
  3. Shows their check-in QR
  4. Organizer scans the QR with the app camera

2. Organizer scans

  1. Organizer opens the event Check-in section
  2. Uses the camera to scan each participant's QR
  3. On scan, the system records check-in automatically

Where to check in

  • App (PWA): Ideal, has integrated camera
  • Web: Also works if the device has a camera

Who can check in

Only event staff (organizer, admin) can record check-ins. Participants cannot self-check-in; they must be scanned.

See who checked in

In the event participants or check-in section you'll see:

  • List of accepted registrants
  • Who already checked in (and time)
  • Who still needs to be registered

Filters and check-in

If you configured that only those who checked in can advance to filters:

  • MCs without check-in won't appear as eligible to score
  • Make sure to run check-in before starting filters
